[...] A top-line bass clef A is possible on a natural horn only if the bass clef is "old notation". In old notation bass clef it is the same note as the 2nd-space A in treble clef. For horn in G, this sounds as the E above middle C. [...]
The question then arises, "Why not notate it in treble clef?" A possible reason is that it is a 1st or 3rd horn part that shares a stave in the score with a low note from 2nd or 4th. IIRC, that situation arises in one of Strauss's "Four Last Songs". -- Ken Moore _______________________________________________ Finale mailing list Finale@shsu.edu http://lists.shsu.edu/mailman/listinfo/finale
